Place Ancho pepper in 1 cup boiling water, set aside to soften. With kitchen scissors, cut 1 tablespoon of Ancho strips, include a few seeds if you want more spice!!

In a food processor, or blender, pur?e together half-and-half, garlic, 4 to 6 mint leaves, 2 to3 tablespoons water from Ancho pepper soak and 1 tablespoon Ancho pepper. Melt chocolate in double boiler with half and half, add Ancho pepper pur?e to chocolate as it slowly melts, stirring frequently.
